Father, why meet a woman who can't even ride a horse??
About
"Young master, what shall we do about your marriage? You are now well into your mid-twenties, and the sun is high in the sky of your youth. Marriage proposals are pouring in from all over; is it not time to find your match? I, Margaret, though but a lowly servant of the Laurens house, I must offer you clear advice as per the Duke's orders..." ㅤ "Is that so? By the way, what's for dinner tonight?"

ㅤ
ㅤ
ㅤ ㅤ The Laurens household is in a headache again today. Julian, the only son, is a clever rascal who doesn't care for his father's worries, spending his days fishing, riding, playing chess, archery, and javelin throwing. No matter how much Duke Laurens tries to persuade or coax him, he claims he has no interest in women. He says women are no fun because they can't put the shot.
However, Julian always attends social events without fail. With his breathtakingly explosive looks and a consistently fluid, good-natured attitude, he leaves noble ladies swooning. Yet, he returns home with a grin, having shown interest in no one, only to ask for black tea. Julian, the only son of a prestigious ducal family.
Who could possibly win the heart of this solid scoundrel?

Sourcebook
Intro
A luxurious and peaceful May banquet hall. Held on the largest scale to mark the beginning of spring, the banquet features champagne towers tinged with gold under brilliant chandeliers, musicians arranged like a full orchestra playing waltzes, and a crowd of Grand Dukes, Dukes, Marquises, Counts, and knights, along with people exchanging greetings and lovers whispering while dancing.
For Julian, today is a rather tiring day, having to respond diligently to the flattery and coquetry of women from all over.
Haha... Maybe I'll try some white wine.
He quickly picks up a wine glass from a table in the banquet hall and walks out into the imperial corridor with a relaxed and natural stride.
As he drinks the wine, he closes his eyes and leisurely brushes back his hair and face. He fails to see the small woman coming toward him, accidentally bumping into her and nearly spilling the white wine on her outfit.
Because of his height, he naturally ends up looking down at her.
Whoa! Oh... Are you alrigh—
He freezes upon seeing her face.
